“The Wynnstone takes inspiration from the Arts and Crafts movement. To achieve this, we used a variety of natural materials with an emphasis on rich dramatic tones, such as the American walnut throughout the main level, detailed tile work with rustic metal accents, and carpet that has the appearance of natural sisal. Exquisite wood details such as the dramatic and heavy staircase railing, oversized window casings, as well as the use of stone and granite in the kitchen, all lend themselves to this early 1900s architectural style,” explains Brigette Allensworth, interior design consultant for Albi Homes.

As you cross the threshold into the dropped foyer with custom copper and ceramic tile inlaid flooring, a uniquely crafted niche provides a magnificent view into the home. To the right, is the cosy study and beautifully crafted staircase leading upstairs; to the left, a closet and half-bath, with access to the mud room, garage, and pantry. The coffered ceiling dining room, the great room and gourmet kitchen with island are filled with warmth and style. The kitchen, with its butler’s pantry and prep area, features Kitchen Aid Superba appliances and gas range. The eating nook is surrounded by large windows allowing natural light to pervade throughout the living spaces.

Up the stairs from the foyer, you will find the master bedroom which takes advantage of the fabulous view of Alberta’s Foothills, the Rocky Mountains, the Bow River valley and escarpment. The ensuite includes a soaker tub, large walk-in shower and his and hers vanities with premium granite countertops. Two additional airy bedrooms, each with its own walk-in closet, and the well-thought out laundry room featuring Kitchen Aid Ensemble series front loading washer and dryer are also found upstairs.

Hardwood flooring and Berber carpet have been used tastefully throughout the home, with WarmTiles® in the master ensuite, keeping feet warm. In-slab heating is also found in the basement.

Crestmont is a “destination community with great views,” says Kimberley Orr, marketing manager for Albi Homes.  “Crestmont is its own special hideaway, nestled in amongst the west foothills and Calgary with a fantastic view of the mountains. It has good access to the Trans-Canada Highway and is a quick trip to downtown, plus there is a residents’ community centre. This unique community by Qualico has a lot of green space providing a tranquil environment for professionals, families and empty nesters.”

There are several lots available with views and most are walkouts. NL
